I duplicate databases regularly from production to test. I have a request to restore test with production data from 2/26. The sys admin has restored the 2/26 backup to test server in normal backup directory location. What extra is needed can I do to either restore to new database name, or duplicate if possible. Is that example in Robert Freeman's 10g book? If so page# would be nice. Joel Patterson Database Administrator 904 727-2546 -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
